Minority HIV/AIDS Research
Initiative (MARI) Project—Preventing
HIV Risk Behaviors among Hispanic
Adolescents—New—National Center for
HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, Sexually
Transmitted Diseases, and Tuberculosis
Elimination Programs (NCHHSTP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is planning to interview
Hispanic adolescents and their parents
at two high schools in Miami-Dade
County to facilitate the development of
targeted and culturally-appropriate HIV
prevention materials for Hispanic youth
in Miami-Dade County. The purpose of
the proposed study is to assess the
efficacy of Streamlined Familias Unidas,
a 5-session version of a longer
efficacious, parent-centered prevention
intervention developed specifically for
Hispanic families. 240 Hispanic
adolescents and their primary caregivers
(480 total participants) from two MiamiDade County public high schools will be
recruited and randomized into two
groups: (1) The streamlined 5-session
Familias Unidas intervention group, and
(2) a group that receives routine
information about HIV from the high
schools. Four times over 2 years, both
groups will respond to computerized
questionnaires that explore family
function, sexual behaviors, etc. These
assessment questionnaires will be
computer-based (ACASI). The
assessments are for the purpose of
developing and improving HIV
prevention materials and interventions
that are culturally appropriate to the
Hispanic population in Miami-Dade

County. Family functioning, substance
use, sexual behaviors, behavior
problems, and community values will
inform HIV intervention programs in the
community.
This study will address some of the
goals of CDC’s ‘‘CDC HIV Prevention
Strategic Plan: Extended Through 2010’’.
CDC plans to meet specific goals by
increasing the number of behavior
prevention interventions proven
effective for Hispanic adolescents, and,
increasing the number of Hispanic
adolescents who consistently engage in
behaviors that reduce risk for acquiring
HIV. Additionally, the study data will
provide important information that will
aid in developing and improving HIV
prevention interventions for Hispanic
adolescents and their families.
Questionnaires will take from
approximately 45 min. (caregivers) to 60
minutes (adolescents) to complete.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time.

On October 10, 2008, President Bush
signed S. 1382: ALS Registry Act which
amended the Public Health Service Act
to provide for the establishment of an
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
Registry. The activities described are
part of the effort to create the National
ALS Registry. The purpose of the
registry is to: (1) Better describe the
incidence and prevalence of ALS in the
United States; (2) examine appropriate
factors, such as environmental and
occupational, that might be associated
with the disease; (3) better outline key
demographic factors (such as age, race
or ethnicity, gender, and family history
of individuals who are diagnosed with
the disease) associated with the disease;
and (4) better examine the connection
between ALS and other motor neuron
disorders that can be confused with
ALS, misdiagnosed as ALS, and in some
cases progress to ALS. The registry will
collect personal health information that
may provide a basis for further scientific
studies of potential risks for developing
ALS.
During a workshop held by The
Agency for Toxic Substances and
PO 00000
Frm 00046
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Disease Registry (ATSDR) in March
2006 to discuss surveillance of selected
autoimmune and neurological diseases,
it was decided to develop a proposal to
build on work that had already been
done and coordinate existing datasets to
create a larger database, rather than to
start from scratch with medical records
review and physician reporting. Four
pilot projects were funded to evaluate
the accuracy and reliability of existing
data from the Center for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (CMS) and various
datasets from the Veterans
Administration. Preliminary results
indicate that additional ways to identify
cases of ALS will be necessary to
increase completeness of the registry.
Therefore, ATSDR developed a Web site
where individuals will also have the
opportunity to provide additional
information on such things as
occupation, military service, and family
history of ALS, which is not available in
existing records.
The registration portion of the data
collection will be limited to information
that can be used to identify an
individual to assure that there are not
duplicate records for an individual.
Avoiding duplication of registrants due
to obtaining records from multiple
sources is imperative to get accurate
estimates of incidence and prevalence,
as well as accurate information on
demographic characteristics of the cases
of ALS.
